I have about 45,000 miles on my Speed Yellow GT3. The front half of the car has a clear bra. I am noticing 3 types of problems:
Any suggestions? Does anyone else have problems with staining?
Thanks,
David
- Staining - looks like oil has discolored the plastic by the wheel wells
- Dings - some road debris has marred a couple of places, like rock chips on a non-protected finish
- Scratches - I have scratches on the plastic, perhaps from cleaning, perhaps from something else
Any suggestions? Does anyone else have problems with staining?
Thanks,
David

If it were me, I'd replace it.
The bras don't last forever, they do show wear and tear over time as you've noticed. However, that's wear and tear your paint DIDN'T have to endure!
If you remove it, all the damage that has been done to the bra will immediately start happening to your paint.

I would replace it. In the long run it's cheaper and easier to apply clear bra then to go through the hassle of getting a good color matched respray.

I just replaced my clear bra...paint under it looked new. New bra and car looks new again...easy peasy!
